People need love to thrive. Does love become a need or a choice? Well one can have different thoughts or belief's on this, but studies have proven that um's do not thrive without love and attention. There are adults who have lost a partner and researchers have documented that they died soon after losing their spouse and died of a broken heart. If one is not loved, they will often times be less healthy emotionally and physically.
At what point does love become a need? With some, they feel they can live without love and be fine. Keep in mind there are many forms of love. If one has no love... none... what happens? I believe they fail to thrive. They may survive, but they do not thrive. In my mind then, love becomes a need to sustain life or good human emotion. So it is from this view that I often will look at needs in life.
I believe that the power of love can bring about many things in life and without it, we suffer. Some believe if you don't need something like food, air, water... it isn't a need and I can understand their stand, but I think that the word need isn't so black and white and there are various types of needs and different degree's for lack of a better word, of needs. I have seen the power of love and I will never be able to belittle it's effect or need in a human being. I won't go into all the things I have seen or believe in this but it is powerful.
I do believe that love comes in right after those things that sustain life and is a need.
